Hello all,

If you are following the Board meetings, you may have learned that the old
Local Chapters Working Group (LCWG) that was previously active from 2011 to
2014 (and which formulated the Foundation's Local Chapters affiliation
scheme), has been relaunched as the Local Chapters and Communities Working
Group (LCCWG) and approved by the Board late last year.

The LCCWG aims to seek and implement ways for the Foundation to support the
growth of local communities and potentially encourage established
communities to eventually become Local Chapters. Additionally, the working
group will also facilitate a global exchange of ideas and support among
Local Chapters and communities and review and suggest improvements to the
Local Chapters affiliation scheme.

You may learn more about the working group on the OSMF website:
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters_and_Communities_Working_Group

The working group also has a meeting every month and we have already had
four meetings since September 2019. You may read our meeting minutes on the
OSMF website as well:
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters_and_Communities_Working_Group#Meeting_and_minutes

If you are interested in helping grow local communities in OSM, we
encourage you to join this working group! (You do not need to be a member
of a Local Chapter.)

Regards,
Eugene Alvin Villar
LCCWG Chairperson
